Chapter 263 263: Blood WereWolf



With his blood surrounding his entire body, Geo looked like he had transformed into a giant blood cocoon in the sky that was ready to hatch a beautiful bloody butterfly. Unfortunately, the creature that was about to be born from this blood cocoon was not as beautiful as a butterfly.

Instead, once Geo had finished his transformation, he had transformed into the monsters that were said to have been born during the night of the full moon. The sole predators to the legendary vampires and the masters of beasts, the werewolf. 

"Awooo!"

Completely transformed into his blood werewolf transformation, Geo let out a loud howl that shook the platform. Feeling endless power flowing in his body now that he was using the full limit of his Blood Master realm, Geo stomped on the air heavily.

"Thud!"

Even though he was several hundred feet in the air, Geo's stomp seemed to have hit a solid floor as he used it as a foundation to fly to Yoze at extreme speeds. Even with Yoze manipulating the gravity around him to pull him to the platform faster, Geo rapidly caught up.

Seeing that Geo had caught up to him, Yoze took a deep breath and prepared to defend against any of his attacks. Unfortunately, the expected attack never came as Geo ran right past him and raced straight toward the platform.

Noticing the smirk on Geo's face as he ran past him, Yoze's eyebrow twitched as he prepared himself to face an attack from below instead. He couldn't imagine what was going through Geo's head to miss such a good opportunity to attack him in the air while he was helpless.

Still, he couldn't afford to lower his defenses for even a second since one mistake could cost him his life. So after adjusting his defense, Yoze mentally prepared himself for anything Geo could throw at him.

As the two of them fell to the obsidian platform, Geo reached the platform first and was a few inches away from touching the ground before disappearing. Even Yoze's incredible senses and the crowd of immortal cultivators using the Eye of Insight couldn't see where Geo had gone. 

"Whoosh!" 

Suddenly feeling a tingling sensation coming from the back of his head and having his body once again taken over by Mindless Legs, Yoze then became aware that Geo had finally made his move. With Mindless Legs' quick reaction speed, Yoze's body used its incredible flexibility paired with the Vine Serpent's inner vigor to shrink his body to avoid the heavy kick to his skull.

"Boom!"

Even though he had failed to land his attack, Geo didn't mind and had planned for that to happen. So he used the momentum of his kick to twist his and swipe at Yoze's back using his claws wrapped in blood.

Feeling that the danger hadn't subsided yet, Yoze noticed that Mindless Legs immediately activated his heavy inner vigor at full power. With his weight suddenly increasing several times, Mindless Legs controlled one of his legs to confront the attack.

"Boom!"

Though the kick didn't use any martial art techniques and thus couldn't use its full potential, his extreme weight managed to produce enough force to match Geo's blood claw. 

Surprised that Yoze had another trick up his sleeve, Geo smiled as he again used his unbelievable speed to disappear and reappear in a location that Yoze wasn't prepared for. Even though Mindless Legs managed to avoid or confront each of the attacks, Yoze knew that the situation wasn't good.

Due to Geo's endless attacks and his perfect planning, he was able to stop Yoze from continuing to fall to the ground and thus kept him in the sky, where his options were limited. What made it worse was that he couldn't afford to deactivate Mindless Legs, as Geo would occasionally remove the blood covering his spiked armor guards. With the extreme danger, only Mindless Legs could dodge those attacks.

"How do I change my situation?" With his mind trapped inside his brain, Yoze tried to devise ways to escape from his poor situation.

"Even though the situation looks like Geo is in perfect control and is toying with me, in reality, we are in a deadlock. He can't land a blow that can do enough damage to me, and I can't escape his control."

"As long as I temporarily deactivate Mindless Legs and endure one of the attacks, I can launch a counterattack. But I will need to choose when I do it carefully since Geo could uncover his spiked arm guards at any time." Even though Yoze understood that he could simply beat Geo using his stamina or use more of his power, he didn't want the battle to have such an ending.

He wanted to use this opportunity to improve his martial art skills, and simply using his superior body to win wouldn't improve his battle skills. There weren't many opportunities to fight opponents of Geo's caliber, especially those who were arguably much stronger than any Martial Grandmaster yet was still weaker than an immortal.

After making up his mind, Yoze carefully watched for the best opportunity to launch his counterattack. Eventually, he found it when Geo tried to tear off his face using the claws on his blood legs.

With such a clear sight of Geo's body in front of him, Yoze ignored his instincts, forcefully took control of his body, and endured the kick to his face.

"Bang! Rip!" 

Immediately, the sound of clashing and ripping metal echoed throughout the southern mountain, surprising Geo and the audience. Not allowing Geo enough time to adjust his plans, Yoze used the force of the attack to get some distance.

And swiftly transformed his blood into a long whip and attacked the platform. What Yoze wanted to do was get to the ground as soon as possible, and doing so using his natural falling speed wasn't fast enough.

So he decided to get some help by establishing a solid connection with the ground by activating the Sinking Swamp's inner vigor in his blood to form a bridge. Once Yoze's blood whip slammed against the obsidian platform, Yoze pulled as hard as he could.
